1. Are the sons of Salma son of Jandal truly
Threatening me among all the assemblies?

2. Why do you not make such threats against
The clan of Qa’qa and the clan of Ibn Habis?

3. They have denied you the inheritance of your father,
So the inheritance has gone to the generous nobles.

4. They have led you to the shore of the sea, athirst,
And they have left you between one who is unlucky and one who is unfortunate.
